This is the Hacker Newsiest comment I've ever read on Hacker News.

When I read the oral history linked in the obit I was surprised how scrappy/startup-y NASA was in the early days. Flying to Cape Canaveral and handing a technician a part you just made without any paperwork would probably not fly nowadays

Wait till you see how I appropriate NASA's greatness for my LinkedIn thought-leader post.

(I'm typing the text into Photoshop right now, like a quote, with my name, over an image of me looking like an inspirational keynote speaker, in hopes that my LinkedIn post image will be shared rather than unattributed copypasta.)

It'd be cooler if you were typing it into a prompt to allow genAI to make that slide deck for you. Photoshop is so 1990s old and busted with hand in pocket rent seeking subscription. We'll just ignore the subscription necessary to use genAI as that doesn't serve the purpose of the comment.
